John's Carry Out — Restaurant in Baltimore

Was at work around the corner and a colleague suggested i go here. Checked the ratings which seemed decent. Ordered thr stuffed shrimp with broccoli and mashed potatoes no gravy. I was disappointed with the food. Yes it looked great, but the taste was something else. Mashed potatoes were not homemade. You can taste the potato flake, rather more like cardboard that had a whole container of salt in it. It would've been bearable if it was seasoned correctly. Because I didn't get gravy i thought i would've got some butter on the side or something...nope. Them the stuffed shrimp weren't fresh. It was breaded with "crabmeat" on top that had been broiled. I gave it a try and there was a lot of filler and that was a little too salty for me as well. The only thing i enjoyed was the broccoli. It was crisp and seasoned just right. Also the cocktail sauce was salty too. Whoever cooked this day was heavy handed with the salt. The food looked ok when it was showed before putting in a bag to go. I don't understand how they have 4.5 stars. Maybe people like salty greasy foid. The bread was an oily warmed up ha.burger bun 😕. Initially i thougyy it was a warm biscuit or roll. This place has some work to do. Would I go back...maybe for fries...

The John’s team always takes great care of us and my two teenage sons LOVE eating here!!

Hello…I’ll try to make this brief. Per the screenshot below, (credit to David Brooke) you have your two role players, John (father of Spyro) and Miners Cap (cousin), I’ll save the family tree for a rainy day. Anyways there’s your foundation, two hardworking Baltimore natives 1 behind the register and 1 manning the griddle. You’re on your way to work and you phone in. Here is how it’s gonna go:

John: “Johns”

Me: “Hi can I get a bacon egg and cheese on toast?”

John: “Ok that it”

Me: “Yea”

This establishment is woven into my day to day existence and I give credit to John’s for being a fresh start to my day, and a warm dining room on a rainy...
